The Los Angeles mill destroyed by fire never operated again in 1906.

Los Angeles—The mill, shaft and other buildings destroyed by fire last week will be rebuilt at once. The same general plan will be followed except that changes will be made in accordance with past experience.

A cyanide mill has been installed on the Los Angeles property near the Last Dollar.

Los Angeles Mill—The initial clean-up at this mill on the Los Angeles mine of the Stratton estate, has resulted in a gold brick of a value said to be satisfactory to the management.
It has been decided to increase the capacity of the plant to treat 100 tons each shift of twelve hours. The present capacity is fifty tons per day of twenty-four hours.

Since the last report of the condition of cyaniding in the Cripple Creek district given in Mining Reporter (September 1, 1904), many changes have taken place as regards the mills in active operation, but comparatively little in the general milling practice. The year has been marked by exceptional activity in mill construction but closes with but a slight increase of tonnage over that reported a year ago. Only two mills, the Homestake and the R. E. A. and A., were then running with an approximate capacity of 300 tons per day. Four mills are now in active operation, but the aggregate tonnage does not exceed 375 tons per day.
The Los Angeles mill of the Exposition Mining and Leasing Company has just started with two leaching tanks of 150 tons' capacity, with the expectation of putting in a third tank of the same size. Ore is being milled at present at the rate of about forty tons per day, the ore being taken from the second and third levels of the mine. The ore at this depth is not entirely oxidized, although the main portion is. The mill has not been running long enough to give any figures on extraction, etc.
The Los Angeles mill has a 40 tons Capacity with 2 Tanks being 5 x 30 feet each and Approximate capacity of 150 tons. The Crushing mesh is 4. Value of ore treated is $5.50.
As a rule the nature of the ore in the district does not admit of cyanidation without roasting, to any great depth, but an area including portions of Bull, Ironclad and Globe hills seems to be an exception to the general rule.
